Thx! He had to create blank DBs - BackupExec needed to see "something" there to restore over. That and the little problem of D: not being shared (D$) after HP recreated the array. After 12 hours yesterday, and another 9 hours today...I think a single beer would kill me (but I'm willing to find out) LOL I'd like to say that I am very grateful for the help I get on this list (and on a weekend nonetheless). My meager participation has not even come close to all the help I have received over the years. Thank you.

Just create new db's and restore into them? Pretty sure thats basically what you do but it's hard to say by email. Just thought I'd try and put your kind at ease that as long as your backups sound you'll be ok. Glad it worked have a beer you deserve it Graeme On Sunday, 26 February 2012, Graeme Carstairs wrote: When exchange is up its a tick box, but look at your log files if you have files dated back to your last backup and over approx 5Mbs worth then it's not enabled and you should have logs Formosa every transaction that's occurred since last backup. If you are that nervous and it's your production system I would work with ms, especially of your company will sign off on the cost. It's really just 2 things is your backup sound, and is circular logging off. If Backup sound your back to where the backup started. If circular logging disable your back to where you crashed. Another tip if you can copy the logs somewhere do so befor you start as with the logs and backup your sorted. Graeme On Sunday, 26 February 2012, David Mazzaccaro wrote: Thank you for the reply.
